Highlights
“Darren and team were incredible, from start to finish. The communication was brilliant, always available when we had questions , completely honest, local and really reliable and prices were very reasonable. A high standard of work and professionalism from start to finish. I was working from home throughout the work and they were really respectful , and it was a pleasure to have them in our home. Would highly recommend. Our little boy is absolutely delighted with the results, as are we . Such a transformation. (The photos don’t do it justice)”
“Darren Giles has now done further work for us, and once again the work has been carried out to the highest standards... but more importantly for us is that, in a world where I so often get unreliable and inconsistent service, Darren is a joy to deal with. He is a man of the highest integrity who has always done great work at a reasonable price... and can be absolutely trusted to deliver exactly what has been agreed. I can't recommend him and his team highly enough.”

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
